who created "cancer"?

[Rick O'Shez]

Life is a complicated process, whether one prefers evolution or ID. ... Cancer is just an error which results in cells which don't know when to stop reproducing...so they don't stop...they keep dividing & growing. It can be caused by a number of things, eg, chemicals (even naturally occuring ones), cosmic background radiation. Cancer has always been with us. It's part of being a multi-cellular life form. Bummer, man.

Yes, though the prevalance of such errors seems to argue against "Intelligent" Design and in favour of the trial-and-error process of evolution. A loving God would surely have designed out cancer.

Whether this God fellow is loving or malicious is a question far above me pay grade.

He doesn't come across as very nice in the Old Testament.

"Cancer" is an out of balance energy. I love my lung cancer. I grew it in my body. Now it has to be removed with my lower left lung lobe on November 29. My DNA has been damaged and weakened to the point that "Cancer" grew in a mass of Squamous cells. My body is healing the "Cancer" to the best of it's ability but it needs help. Hence Lower Left Lung which the "cancer" lives must be removed.

Dang! Get well...& have some steak & beer.

 

[Ultimatum]

Man "created" cancer through 'wrong living'.

You're... you're kidding.. right?
It doesn't matter how you live: a perfectly healthy person can still get cancer.

 

[Parsimony]

Cancer exists, at least in part, because DNA replication is an imperfect process.

 

[averageJOE]

iv got an idea but its diffecult explain.
but id like to hear what other people think?.........it doesnt make sense why its on earth?

Care to explain your idea now?

 

[Guy Threepwood]

a world with no challenges would not imply intelligent design..

Life is a complicated process, whether one prefers evolution or ID. With so many (thousands upon thousands) chemical processes going on, particularly with DNA replication, there will be errors. Cancer is just an error which results in cells which don't know when to stop reproducing...so they don't stop...they keep dividing & growing. It can be caused by a number of things, eg, chemicals (even naturally occuring ones), cosmic background radiation. Cancer has always been with us. It's part of being a multi-cellular life form.

so its a unfortunate accident rather than a virus or disease....i understand know thanks..



so what about viruses and disease?

there things arnt they?

i was wrong iv now learned that cancer is an error not a "thing".

i think im right about why viruses and diseases and germs are here......there not errors........there actual "things"

but its diffecult to explain.....id like to see what everyone else thinks first.

 

[McBell]

Very few non-smokers get lung cancer, although some do and no one really knows why. More than 90% of the people who have lung cancer are smokers. In fact half of the smokers end up contracting a diseased directly linked to smoking. Do you want to blame that on the genes?

Source please.

Hey....the term "one lunger" refers to a kind of antique engine....

so what about the germs and virsuses?
what purpose did god great them for ?

they seem more a devil creation than gods.

I'm not expert on the intentions of supreme beings, but viruses are useful for gene transfer, which serves his (her?) evolutionary agenda.
